I finally got the the check in the mail. I hear that phrase a lot as a bill collector for a credit card company, but in this case it's actually true. It actually is in the mail! I even have the check number 2336.. Now let's just hope it is not lost

How come Hasbro is making really long extentions for their Mail-aways now? We have untill March for the Qui-Gon/Eopie, which is pretty darn long. I'm totally fine for the extention, since I still need to mail-away, but I don't remember Hasbro doing this before. Or am I wrong?

They probably have an overabundance of this set, thinking many U.S. collectors would want it, since it was never released here. Admittedly I need to send my stuff in so I'm glad for the extension.

That actually makes sense.

If no one supports this you can count on there not being another mail away next year for the "Real" line. This will also give Hasbro reason to say "we told you so" on the Eopie. I have seen so many Q&A's asking for a rerelease of this item and it seems not many are biting. I see this trend across a few boards, I would not blame Hasbro for not pursuing another mail away if this flops horribly. I mailed away for a 7 of them and just mailed away for 9 more.

These sets are a great way to get a refund on Star Wars as I flipped 6 of them on eBay for $25 a pop already. That the plan for the next 9, I make an honest buck and support the line in two ways: the Eopie offer and use the money to fund my collection. I hope this will motivate some members to mail away for this item because I would love to see more offers like this. This is such a good deal for $6.99, everyone should mail away for one to ensure future offerings. Plus why wouldn't you want this in your collection?
